3 per cent from herd immunity: Get your flu jab now

November 22, 2018

We’re currently 3 per cent from herd immunity with 77 per cent of our front facing colleagues being vaccinated. This mean we only need 120 patient facing colleagues to get their jab to reach herd immunity.

To help reach 80 per cent herd immunity, we are still offering additional flu jab drop-in sessions today across our sites:

Sandwell

  • Friday 23 November: Occupational Health courtyard gardens, 1pm-4pm

City

  • Friday 23 November: Old foot health clinic, 8.30am-11:30am

Our nurses will also be walking around both City and Sandwell sites at various times over the next few weeks, please ring them on the flu mobiles if you would like them to come to your ward or department.

  • City phone – 07976 640187
  • Sandwell phone –  07976 428284

Be sure to check out this video featuring Puneet Sharma who is encouraging all to get the flu jab.

Note: The flu vaccine does not contain any pork or meat product or derivatives.
